Recent neutron scattering measurements on the spinel CdCr2O4 revealed a rare example of helical magnetic order in geometrically frustrated pyrochlore antiferromagnet. The spin spiral characterized by an incommensurate wavevector Q = 2pi (0,…
Nonreciprocal optical devices have broad applications in light manipulations for communications and sensing. Non-magnetic mechanisms of optical nonreciprocity are highly desired for high-frequency on-chip applications. Here, we investigate…
Coupling between spin, orbital, charge, and lattice degrees of freedom in transition-metal oxides produces a variety of electronic and magnetic phenomena of importance for future technologies. Here, we explore the electronic band structure…
A ferroaxial ordering, which appears without mirror symmetry parallel to an electric axial moment, is described by a ferroic alignment of the electric toroidal (ET) dipole rather than the conventional electric and magnetic dipoles. Although…
The interplay between magnetic order and electronic topology in van der Waals materials enables extreme responses to external stimuli. The nodal-line semiconductor Mn3Si2Te6 exemplifies this, exhibiting colossal angular magnetoresistance…
MnSb$_{2}$O$_{6}$ is based on the structural chiral $P$321 space group #150 where the magnetic Mn$^{2+}$ moments ($S=5/2$, $L\approx 0$) order antiferromagnetically at $T_\mathrm{N}=12$ K. Unlike the related iron based langasite…

We demonstrate the non-reciprocity of electrically and thermally-generated incoherent magnon transport using the magnetization direction of a Py wire placed on top of an ultrathin YIG film. We show that the transport properties of…
Taking the non-collinear antiferromagnetic hexagonal Heusler compound Mn$_3$Ge as a reference system, the contributions to linear response phenomena arising solely from the chiral coplanar and non-coplanar spin configurations are…
Topological magnons are emergent quantum spin excitations featured by magnon bands crossing linearly at the points dubbed nodes, analogous to fermions in topological electronic systems. Experimental realization of topological magnons in…
We propose that concurrently magnetic and ferroelectric, i.e. multiferroic, compounds endowed with electrically-active magnetic excitations (electromagnons) provide a key to produce large directional dichroism for long wavelengths of light.…
An electric toroidal dipole (ETD) moment is one of the fundamental dipole moments as well as electric and magnetic ones. Although it directly couples to neither an electric nor magnetic field due to its spatial inversion and time-reversal…
We have investigated microwave nonreciprocity in a noncentro-symmetric magnet CuB2O4. We simultaneously observed differently originated nonreciprocities; the classical magnetic dipolar effect and the magneto-chiral (MCh) effect. By rotating…

Chiral photonics provides powerful routes for controlling the light handedness, yet nonlinear chiral responses are typically associated with intricate three-dimensional systems. Here, we demonstrate that strong nonlinear chirality can…
SrRu2O6 has unique magnetic properties. It is characterized by a very high N\'eel temperature, despite its quasi-two-dimensional structure, and has a magnetic moment more than twice reduced compared to the formal ionic count. First…
The role of discrete orbital symmetry in mesoscopic physics is manifested in a system consisting of three identical quantum dots forming an equilateral triangle. Under a perpendicular magnetic field, this system demonstrates a unique…
